Additional options used to configure Kafka consumers.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The adapter exposes several Kafka consumer configuration values directly as connection properties. Internally, these are all mapped into properties that are passed to the Kafka client libraries.

If the adapter does not expose an option for the consumer configuration, it can be set here. This option takes a connection string value and passes all its options directly to the consumer. For example, security.protocol=SASL_SSL;sasl.mechanism=SCRAM-SHA-512 sets the security.protocol and sasl.mechanism consumer properties.
